Well i have been playing Halo 3 for about 9-10 hours lol im totally buggered and exhausted. I got the game exactly 19hrs and 23mins ago (at 12.08 midnight in New Zealand). Me and my brother have been playing nonstop as its school holidays and had 2 get off it (meh parents stopped us).

the xbox 360 is winning this gen here and well Halo 2 was a huge game here in New Zealand. 

Halo 3 in going to be BIG as i just watched the news (New Zealand news) and it Halo 3 has already gained $500,000 from last nights/this mornings taking (our population is only 4-5million so just imagine US and WW)

I just wanted to know when did you get your game? are u satisfied? how long have you been playing? has it lived up 2 your expectations???

lol im guna du another all nighter 2mrrw haha

 it is? source plix

Well they said it and showed it on the news with graphs and stuff so i couldnt realy copy it lol. but it try find a source on the web. realised this site dosent do New Zealand figures.

it may surprise you, but halo 2 was also a big success outside of new zealand too ;)

one game cant save the 360 from second place. nothing can.

I think im about half an hour from the end. There are two sequences that take place in the air that have instantly gone into my top five memorable gaming moments.

Can't get it, don't have a 360 yet.

@starcraft:

Top gaming moments? Hmm you got me thinking lol. Well my TOP most moment was when I was Samus coming out of her ship in Prime 1 at that pirate space station. That was MAGNIFICENT. Second I believe is when in Twilight Princess you enter Kakriko and the 3 bores attack - that cutscene in slowmo was orgasmic!

 Lol, i know im reminiscing now lol.

I got my copy just under seven hours ago, and have already beaten the campaign on normal co-op. Unfortunately that took all of five hours to do. I will give my impressions later considering I am extremely sleep deprived. I am fast approaching a full day without any sleep, and that mattress is looking mighty tempting. I would say I was quite satisfied.

Playing now, don't wanna talk........

I played on Halo 3 ages ago!!

Mind you, it was called Halo 2 then :OP

I notice whilst Halo is a big seller in USA (80% of total sales) everywhere else including Europe the sales numbers are pretty low, wonder why.
